Phylogenetic identification and in situ detection of individual microbial cells without cultivation.

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis of the retrieved rRNA sequence of an uncultured microorganism reveals its closest culturable relatives and may, together with information on the physicochemical conditions of its natural habitat, facilitate more directed cultivation attempts.

Use of bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase to direct selective high-level expression of cloned genes

TL;DR: A gene expression system based on bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase has been developed and high levels of accumulation suggest that the RNAs are relatively stable, perhaps in part because their great length and/or stem-and-loop structures at their 3' ends help to protect them against exonucleolytic degradation.

Introducing EzTaxon-e: a prokaryotic 16S rRNA gene sequence database with phylotypes that represent uncultured species.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the EzTaxon-e database provides a useful taxonomic backbone for the identification of cultured and uncultured prokaryotes and offers a valuable means of communication among microbiologists who routinely encounter taxonomically novel isolates.

Ribosomal DNA: molecular evolution and phylogenetic inference.

TL;DR: An analysis of aligned sequences of the four nuclear and two mitochondrial rRNA genes identified regions of these genes that are likely to be useful to address phylogenetic problems over a wide range of levels of divergence.

The Domain-specific Probe EUB338 is Insufficient for the Detection of all Bacteria: Development and Evaluation of a more Comprehensive Probe Set

TL;DR: Two supplementary versions of probe EUB338 are designed and evaluated for in situ detection of most of those phyla not detected with this probe, which should allow a more accurate quantification of members of the domain Bacteria in future molecular ecological studies.

Improved Estimation of Secondary Structure in Ribonucleic Acids

TL;DR: This method can be used for predicting and assessing possible secondary structures for recently determined RNA sequences and new experimental and theoretical results allow us to improve the method, without making it more complicated.

A colony bank containing synthetic CoI EI hybrid plasmids representative of the entire E. coli genome

TL;DR: Over 80 hybrid Col El-DNA (E. coli), plasmid-bearing clones have been identified in the colony bank, and about 40 known E. coli genes have been tentatively assigned to these various plasmids.

Bacteriophage T7 early promoters: nucleotide sequences of two RNA polymerase binding sites.

TL;DR: A model for promoter structure and function is put forth at two independent bacteriophage T7 early promoters and the nucleotide sequence of each promoter fragment and the sequence of the mRNA coded by each fragment are presented.
